School Health And Safety Officers Await Contracts And Gratuity Payments

School Health And Safety Officers Raise Concerns Over Contracts And Outstanding Gratuity Payments School Health and Safety Officers in Trinidad and Tobago are reportedly seeking answers over contract renewals and outstanding gratuity payments, according to concerns shared anonymously with TG News. The source, who requested anonymity, said officers whose contracts expired in August have allegedly not received new contracts or communication explaining what will happen next. Questions are also being raised about what the source described as differing timelines for contract renewals. According to the individual, School Health and Safety Officers whose contracts expired in March were reportedly issued new contracts the following month. However, the source claimed officers whose contracts ended in August have not received similar communication concerning their employment status. The individual said the majority of officers currently affected are those whose contracts expired in August. Separate concerns were raised about gratuity payments. The source alleged that some officers are still owed gratuity from previous periods and claimed the issue has persisted for several years without clear information on when outstanding payments will be processed. TG News has not independently verified the number of officers affected, the individual contract arrangements or the extent of any outstanding gratuity payments. The concerns are therefore being reported as allegations from an anonymous source and not as established findings. Affected officers are seeking clarity on the status of their contracts and any gratuity payments that may remain outstanding.
